Nikon D780 or Z6iii?
So I’m thinking about buying a new camera but I can’t decide between the D780 and the Z6iii. If I get the Z6iii I can probably buy one Z lens with it. If I get the D780 I can maybe get 2 or 3 lens. I currently have a D3100 that was given to me by a friend. I’m open to hear if the Z6iii is worth the leap or if I should get the D780. I want to be able to take photos in low light environments and of people dancing. Video would be nice too but not a need rn.
(1) Budget, country, and currency: $3,000 USD. USA
(2) What equipment, if any, you have now and why is it no longer meeting your needs? I have the D3100. I want equipment that’s good at low light and better at capturing fast moving objects.
(3) What kinds of subjects do you intend to shoot? I want to do street photography, portraits, parties, and wildlife.
(4) Is it primarily for photography, videography, or both? Mainly photography
